You'll have to ask Netzer, he's probably one of the few Germans who has it

Hmm let's see. Paul Breitner has a football brain. Andreas Brehme has a football brain. Felix Magath has a football brain. Does that help any?

Half the players offered are strikers. Most had a fair bit of upper body strength.
Still to fit in with your stereotype.

Player's whose ability to know what to do make them better than one would suspect from their physical/technical abilities.
Fabregas springs to mind immediately.

For how much I idolize him, I'd say he could play till 50 and still don't know what to do with the ball.
..on the other hand he always know what to do to fullfil his duties.

Re: whats a football brain?
well but it's what us ugly italians are about.
Anyway, that's surely true for Baresi and Nesta, not for Maldini.
I think he could've played any position on the pitch and ended up being more universal than Cocu if he was born dutch
